Although I can use a FW400>FW800 cable and then FW800 to thunderbolt I keep looking at the blackmagic mini recorder as having a HDMI feed and SDI would be very sexy! All the new cameras and video cameras have HDMI out now so it seems time to take the plunge.

You're so generous in helping everybody that it is impossible not trying to emulate.

By the way it comes with a lots of different codecs for ntsc, pal and sizes. The only one that is recognized in Isadora is full hd 60i (don't ask me why). But it does an excellent job.... in RGB (in YUV image is BLUE!!!!) DOn't understand why either)

And by, maybe Mark knows, capturing in HD should be done in RGB or YUV?. Or this doesn't make sense in HDMI capture?

Ok That's new. It would be interesting to compare differences. So far I'm really fine with thunderbolt edition. Only problem I noticed is image is perfect in any input if I'm capturing in RGB mode. Under YUV i see the image bit it is strongly blue. No clue why. I wonder if RGB and YUV are still important in HDMI capture via thunderbolt....
